Always delicious
Posted by gusgus621
I love Sacred Chow, especially for lunch on a weekday. The power bowl lunch special is a reliable and filling meal for under $10. In addition to being one of the very best vegetarian (vegan, even) restaurants in the city, they have excellent beer and very pleasant wait staff. I love love love Sacred Chow.
Pros: Reliable, healthy, delicious.
Cons: Small. Things can slow down when it's crowded.

best sunday brunch in nyc for vegans!!

the italian fritatta is the best vegan omelet dish i've had at any veg restaurant anywhere in the u.s! this isn't everyone else's tofu scramble forced into an omelet shape, but an actual omelet substitute layered with vegan soy cheese and tomato sauce. the coffee is a bit rough, to say the least, but the quality of the food trumps my caffeine needs by far. and for any other meal, chow's tapas menu serves up some of the tastiest food in nyc as well, including well prepared vegetable dishes (surprisingly rare for nyc veg restaurants), and lots of protein options that aren't the usual deep-fried fake meats. seriously, over a year of eating here, sacred chow has risen in the ranks from a place we might go if some of the other nearby, maybe more well-known, vegetarian restaurants are overbooked, to one of the two or three restaurants in the city we take our vegan friends to when they come to visit.
Pros: vegan omelet!, great food, variety, service, ambience.
Cons: bad coffee (sorry! it's true) - no it's not true!

Great tasting, creative vegan food

Sacred Chow has become one of my favorite restaurants in the city; I eat their regularly and have never been disappointed by anything- the food is consistently delicious and creative, and the tapas menu changes daily. I've become slightly obsessed with the caesar salad and the tempeh reuben- both are fantastic. Their brunch menu is also great. Try the banana bread french toast and the ridiculously delicious soy hot chocolate. The service is good- attentive, but not overly involved in your meal. I highly recommend Sacred Chow, it's definitely among the best vegetarian restaurants in New York City.
Pros: Delicious food, all vegan, great atmosphere, good service
My Favorite Restaurant (And I've Eaten Around)!

Truly, I just can't get enough. My bf (non-vegan) and I (vegan) eat here as often as five times a week and never get bored. The food is incredibly tasty and creative, and the servers are lovely and attitude-free. Go for weekend brunch and you will be forever hooked. Try one of their triple-fudge brownie sundaes and you'll finally believe that vegan desserts can trounce dairy desserts any day of the week.
Pros: Food, Service, Style
Cons: A wee bit small; if going with a big group, make a reservation!
Best vegan brunch in NYC
Posted by tabascosea
This is by far the best vegan brunch in NYC. The tofu scramble w. gravy over biscuits was gooey and savory, with the biscuits utilizing steamed greens as a buffer to keep the gravy from ruining their perfect crumbliness. The Italian frittata was even better...I've never had vegan cheese that tasted so good or melted so well, and it was a perfect counterpoint to the tangy tomato sauce. I'll have to go back again for lunch or dinner...A vegan himself, the waiter had tried almost everything on the menu, thus was able to make helpful reccomendations.
Pros: delicious healthy food, good service, pretty surroundings (they have a fountain)
Cons: a little pricey (but worth it)

Peaceful atmosphere and wonderful food. I can't believe its vegan - especially the moist carrot cake and the delicious soybuttermilk biscuits. Great shakes and drinks but come for the divine selection of tapas and the great salads (the shiitake and spinach gets major props). And the service is fabulous - very knowledgeable and attentive yet unobtrusive. I feel blessed to have found this place.
Pros: Incredible food, great service and wonderful atmosphere
Cons: downtown

this is a very serene place with tasty food. it's on such a quiet street. it's hard to find a tasty vegetarian salad in new york city after lunch but i found it here. the combination tapas plates are a good deal because you can choose from a selection of noodles, proteins, greens and hummus of the day. i walked away feeling full, healthy and satisfied even though it's vegetarian.
Pros: good; fresh vegetarian food, quiet
Cons: small space
